Microsoft Visual Studio provides a great set of built-in development tools, and an open and extensible platform. Two key components of this platform are Domain-Specific Language (DSL) Tools and the text templating framework. This webcast shows how these technologies can be combined to produce custom tools to support domain-specific software development, where DSLs are used to create models that provide exactly the correct inputs to drive code generators built using text templates. It also explains how DSL Tools use domain-specific development itself for creating graphical designers.
